Peeking From Under The Veil - The 5th World

Just coming back from the medicinelands and noticing that if you have not gotten out of bed yet then, TIME is running out for you to be on time to work. Feeling gratitude for ancestors and spirit guides in this moment. Medicine birds are singing and they are wanting us to hear them. Listen :)

KNOWING YOUR BLOOD IS YOUR ANCESTRAL POWER

- - Petition of William H. Gilpin / Fugitive Slave Petition Book - -

When I find delicious tibits of info like this I wish I had a button and I just send this directly to these folks' descendants. I don't care what kind of family you come from, if you know them or if you don't , without our ancestors and their guidance we really can't be doing justice to our lives. Genealogy isn't just about finding them, it's finding yourself as well. THIS IS WHERE ANCESTOR VENERATION MUST BEGIN. Get you a subscription to Ancestry or HeritageQuest or even go to GenWeb (free ), find somebody to help you do the work and HEAL your lineage. It is possible. Why you think the LDS Churchfolk doing it?

If you didn't get the BIG messages of 2020 let me repeat it here for you :

• PLANT RELATIVES are medicine
• DANCE is medicine
• SONG is medicine
• WORDS are medicine
• NATURE is medicine
• the STARS are medicine
• WE are medicine OR poison to each other.
• YOU ARE THE MEDICINE

The New Earth is upon us and we must learn to live here together.
